Imprisoned




Hear me! Heed me!
One more time!!
Hear my whispers, hear my rhymes
I fright!
For I sense my words would soon fade
If not uttered;
If not heard;
They shall perish forever,
And never shall wake

Artisted, I confess!
Crafted and beautified,
Indeed they are prettied
And mystified
But they are real,
They are sincere.

Prisoned in me for years.
They are chested
Amid agonizing noise
Silent; they are dusted
Hear them now
For they are fading
Free them!
For they are long awaiting
Take them
For I am weary of the keep.
In absolution,
I want to finally sleep
Hear me! Hear me!
One last time.

The activities f Taliban continued. Killing, extortion, kidnapping, suicide bombings are all the same, nothing has changed. Now some people are saying that they should be given time but I am with the view that the matter is so sensitive that Pakistan could lose and lose fast. The agreement should ...

Decision by Supreme Court of Pakistan on Dictators 3rd November Actions

At last step has been taken by the Pakistani Supreme Court for the closure & locking of the Doors through which Generals’ used to invade the democracy in Pakistan and impose Military Fascism. Establishing the actions of 3rd November as being unconstitutional and unlawful is a leap forward in strengthening the very foundations of Pakistan. It is again the judiciary who has taken this honor into their credit. Our Politicians as always are left behind. Our sitting parliament and rulers have never done anything or taken any decisions, good or bad, on their own. It was always some external factor which forced them to take action. They sure are good followers though to whosoever they follow, forcefully or voluntarily. It seems that t the situation has confused them to the extent that they have lost their sense of direction and decision power. The followers have now being asked to do something on their own. This is chance to revisit their attitude and coming forward as leaders. If this ch...
